Vita-Mix Total Nutrition Center Important Instructions Manual page 15

Please place the Vitamix in a level, dry location. After ensuring
that the power switch is off, insert the plug into the outlet.
We recommend using an outlet that has a ground connector.
The power cord has a three-prong plug, or grounded plug. This
design is for safety by connecting to ground. This plug can be
inserted into a standard three prong outlet.
If you do not have a three-prong outlet, you can plug the power
cord into a typical two prong outlet by using an adapter.
If you are uncertain whether your outlet's electrical wiring is connected to ground, please consult
with an electrician. When connecting the machine to a two prong outlet, first ensure that the outlet
is wired correctly, then connect it to the outlet's grounding screw.
Once your Vitamix is correctly plugged in, get it ready for using by following the "Care and Cleaning"
instructions on page 7.
